FIGI13 — The FIGI ontology should use someValuesFrom rather than min 1 cardinality

  • Key: FIGI13-6
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: edmcouncil.org ( Mrs. Elisa Kendall)
  • Summary:

    Use of min 1 cardinality constraints is effectively syntactic sugar for someValuesFrom in OWL. However, someValuesFrom is far more efficient from a reasoning perspective. The ontology should be revised to use someValuesFrom rather than min 1 cardinality.

    Revise ontology as noted for someValuesFrom

    Use of min 1 cardinality constraints is effectively syntactic sugar for someValuesFrom in OWL. However, someValuesFrom is far more efficient from a reasoning perspective. The ontology should be revised to use someValuesFrom rather than min 1 cardinality.
